Hello, I'm Mvcg66b3r. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, KYTV (TV), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page.   Mvcg66b3r (talk) 02:36, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited WTSN-CD, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Heartland. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Formatting of call sign meanings
Hey, saw your changes to KVDO-TV.

I reverted them in line with Talk:WNGH-TV. I know it's still common in TV pages, but it's been found to be against MOS:ACRO, an encyclopedia-wide policy. Since you often edit articles in this topic area, please familiarize yourself with that guideline. Raymie (t • c) 04:18, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

Mexican TV station articles
We don't use "licensed to", rather "located in" when describing Mexican TV stations. Also, we don't link to the PSIP article, since Mexico uses a different standard. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 01:01, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for explaining this here, but I also wanted to make a couple of points myself:


 * On the words "license" and "construction permit": I abhor the use of too many US-centric terms in Mexican TV articles. Mexican broadcast licenses are concessions, and further, there is no equivalent to a construction permit. In Mexico, a new broadcast station receives its concession before the station is constructed. You can't really say "conceded to" because that makes little sense. Concessions do specify primary localities to serve, though sometimes, these are actually mountaintop sites.
 * On PSIP: My objection here is not one based on Mexico (the best way to put it is "of course they use PSIP they broadcast in ATSC, but they don't use it in a way that matches the standard"), it's one based on MOS:INFOBOXPURPOSE. Putting "(PSIP)" next to every virtual channel just adds more jargon that nobody really needs. Even more egregiously, the habit jumped television systems, so we got, for instance, "Virtual: 7 (LCN)" at TVQ Kyushu Broadcasting. That's something like an article on a building saying "Elevators: 6 (traction)" or "Elevators: 4 (lifts)", respectively. I added a link to Program and System Information Protocol from Virtual channel. In my personal opinion, it's time to sunset "(PSIP)".

Hopefully these are good explainers. Raymie (t • c) 06:14, 14 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Let me add something else in here. When a TV station (or really, in the case of something like XHLAR-TDT, a transmitter) is owned by its network in Mexico, it's hard to say it's an affiliate. Unlike US networks, Mexican networks are 24-hour operations and there is little to no deviation from the network feed. (With Televisa, that's pretty much zero these days.)

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to WNDT-CD, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at WMBQ-CD, you may be blocked from editing. BlueboyLINY (talk) 05:16, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Your recent editing history at WMBQ-CD shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you do not violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 04:56, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * This is an edit-war warning: you have been engaged in an edit war at WMBQ-CD, being careful not to exceed WP:3R in a day but carrying it on for months. I have locked the page, and it will stay locked until you and the other party work out some kind of agreement on the talk page. -- MelanieN (talk) 22:06, 13 November 2020 (UTC)

WMBQ-CD
The article WMBQ-CD has been full-protected, blocked from all editing, for more than a month because of your edit warring over a few minor issues. (See the article’s history page.) At the talk page a neutral editor has suggested some wording. Please go to the talk page and either accept their suggestion, or explain why you prefer some other version. We need to get these issues resolved so the page can be unlocked. Don't just say “accept my version”; that is unhelpful and does nothing to break the logjam. Explain what specific changes you think should be made, and why. -- MelanieN (talk) 16:18, 16 December 2020 (UTC)

WYAT-LD
Consider this a warning. This edit is highly inappropriate. You are not an admin, you can not protect pages and if you were, you would not be able to do so if you were in that dispute with any editor. That's not only against the rules of Wikipedia, but would be a misuse of tools. Again, that would be if you were an admin. You aren't. Now, you are just a regular editor you has only been here for almost 6 months. I have been here for almost 15 years, so let me give you a little unsolicited advice.

What you are doing right now on the WYAT-LD article is called editwarring. It will get you a block, especially if you go over the 3RR rule. Don't ever misuse those templates again. Not cool, not right, and that WILL get you blocked in a heartbeat.

If you have question, ask. There are plenty of people willing to help. But don't go around halfcocked and think you own the place...because you will be put in your place...and don't be a dick. Verify everything with third party reliable sources don't use original research and always, always double check everything to make sure it's notable and inline with the rules of Wikipedia. Remember, we are a collabrative community that uses consensus not votes to determine how things go, always on the WP:TALKPAGE and with good faith and it is not a good idea to come here and and start trouble. We have rules for a reason, follow them and you'll be OK. -  Neutralhomer •  Talk  • 00:38 on December 25, 2020 (UTC) •  #WearAMask • #BlackLivesMatter

WMBQ-CD
Hello, Tvstationfan101. Please see the discussion on my talk page regarding WMBQ-CD. That is the article that I full-protected last year because of your edit warring. I have now unprotected it. This note is to let you know that the current version of the article is the approved version, because it was the longstanding version before you started changing it. You have two choices: to discuss and reach agreement before making any change, or to leave the article alone. If you change it back to your preferred version without agreement, I will give you a partial-block from editing that page. I am letting you know so there will be no misunderstanding. -- MelanieN (talk) 22:29, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to WTNH, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. BlueboyLINY (talk) 02:45, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
